RequestGlobals will return the same as you store into it using http://tapestry.apache.org/current/apidocs/org/apache/tapestry5/services/RequestGlobals.html#storeRequestResponse(org.apache.tapestry5.services.Request, org.apache.tapestry5.services.Response)
As far as I can see this method is only invoked from request handlers pipeline, which shouldn't happen for background threads, so you should get null there. Can you post your stacktrace?
